Add VMADDR_FLAG_TO_HOST vsock flag that is used to setup a vsock connection where all the packets are forwarded to the host. Then, using this type of vsock channel, vsock communication between sibling VMs can be built on top of it. Changelog v3 -> v4 * Update the "VMADDR_FLAG_TO_HOST" value, as the size of the field has been updated to 1 byte. v2 -> v3 * Update comments to mention when the flag is set in the connect and listen paths. v1 -> v2 * New patch in v2, it was split from the first patch in the series. * Remove the default value for the vsock flags field. * Update the naming for the vsock flag to "VMADDR_FLAG_TO_HOST".

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
